During the epidemic, many people stayed at home to fight the epidemic, and many people had to cook by themselves in the earlier ban on food.
The Facebook Bad Food Page "Day Day Explode" is a collection of black dishes created by netizens every day, but they found tears in their laughter. The moderator talked with the contributors into the night every night and found that bad food is reflecting the truest of life. one side.
The page administrator described: "You are what you eat". It is not about what you should eat for bodybuilding and weight loss, but because many people have no money or time and energy to make delicious food due to restrictions on working hours and low income. Swallow bad food.

During the epidemic, many people stayed at home to fight the epidemic, and took the opportunity to practice cooking skills and put their carefully photographed baking works on the Internet.
"Boom" does not pursue perfection, but "promotes" dark cuisine, accompanied by a section of the story behind the bad food. It was opened in mid-July for a special month. So far, there have been more than 40,000 people like Likes. Common language.
Hong Kong-based microphones are really more than a family of three eating dinner together?
"Love.
"Go home".

"You Are What You Eat"
After reading the submission, I can't help asking, do Hong Kong people really have nothing to do with cooking?
Rayne, a moderator who is engaged in policy research, discovered that cooking does not detract from the lives of Hong Kong people, but instead reflects the real life.
For example, she often receives submissions from young people who make fun of their parents for cooking hard and just stacking up the food randomly. "But when you ask more deeply, it turns out that one of them has passed away. You can see their lives through the food. The current experience."

The special page Admin and Hazel, who is engaged in clerical work in NGOs, also feel the same. They believe that "you are what you eat" does not refer to what you should eat for fitness, but that many people in Hong Kong do not have any restrictions on working hours and low income. Money doesn’t have the time and energy to make delicious food. "Is there a family of three in Hong Kong who are eating dinner together? "Love. Go Home"."
It's embarrassing, I guess he's not rude first.

Talk in depth and present true stories
So you will find that in the funny bad eclipse, there will be long texts expressing emotions.
However, the most frequently received, there is still only one submission, which requires moderators to guess.
Hazel laughed and said, "It's embarrassing, I guess it's not rude at all." Some even looked pretty good, not knowing where the problem was.
Oh!
It turned out to be the coriander.
Most of the stories behind the bad food come through "blowing water." Rayne and Hazel spent a lot of time communicating with the contributors, usually in the evening through the Facebook inbox to talk to the contributors, because many people only have it after work. In private time, willing to talk in depth, and usually have to talk for a few nights, in order to sort out the true story from the dialogue.
What's interesting is that there will be more submissions from Monday to Wednesday. They speculate that people are more "working mode" these days, and they predict that the restaurant will reopen for dine-in dinner, and the submissions may be less.

After the daily explosion, I opened an IG account. There were more young contributors, only to realize that they would be unhappy because of the bad food at home. Through talking, the contributors realized that not all food is as delicate as on IG. The family is busy preparing food, which is also heartwarming.
Of course pretty is good. I like pretty, but there will always be mistakes.

Hong Kong people learn to cook under the epidemic
Moreover, no one knows how to cook as soon as they are born, and it is not necessary to be a parent. The special page also witnesses the process of Hong Kong people learning to cook under the epidemic.
A story about microwave pudding. Contributors tried "hard cooking". At first, it looked like minced meat steamed eggs, and then evolved into steamed meat cakes. After five failures, the sixth time finally succeeded.
The appearance of the first to third generation puddings was placed on the special page, which attracted a lot of feedback.
Hazel feels that social media generally does not tolerate failure, and even conceal failure. She believes that failure is a learning process. On this page, "Everyone finally doesn't feel that they have failed. It is not called failure. It is everyday." Rayne agrees, " Of course being pretty is good. I like being pretty, but there will always be mistakes.”

The furnace platform with love in Mean
In the submission, there is a grassroots girl who has been under the fence since she was a child. When she grew up, she was busy eating two meals, but every meal was rushed with dumplings and other frozen foods. Rayne bluntly felt heartache, but these are real lives. The sign is that the net is ban or trouble. Instead, you should ask what is happening behind him."
But it turns out that you asked more deeply and found out that one of them has passed away. Through the food, you can see what their life is going on.
Rayne, one of the moderators of "Boom!"
To describe in Rayne’s words, a group of people who "mean (mean) has love" are gathered in the day by day. This is indeed the case when reading the comment area. After the story of the grassroots girl was published, the restaurant suggested to cook dinner for her in the comments. Others said that they could deliver food for help.
Fortunately, the income of the protagonist who contributed the article is normal, and he is not in urgent need of help, but just wants to "choose".
Rayne is grateful for the trust of the contributors, and the page has gradually become a "tree hole", providing a channel for venting pressure and a platform for carers to speak out.
